[rescue] what is value of 750C+ 36" inkjet?

[Mike Hebel]

Actually these are pretty good - my previous employer has one.

It's still very viable but you have to print with it on a _very_ regular 
basis or the cartridges clog.  It uses the same cartridges as the 
DeskJet 1600C or similar ones.  I know I've pulled substitute tricks 
when out of the one type.

It's only 300dpi but it's quite quick when using draft mode.
Also it's worth more if you can get it with the Postscript SIMM in it 
because that one is expensive even in the aftermarket.
